I received a message on my cell and at work from a Joseph stating he was trying to contact me about a check that I wrote and needed to verify some information with me for security purposes. I am not sure how to respond to this because I have not had a checking account in over a year. He sounds american and the caller id is from somewhat local area(about 1 1/2 hours away) with a call back #866-443-6985. I thought I would investigate a little before calling back since I have been having serious issues with scammers out of india harrassing me at work and on my cell and I am having troubles getting them to stop. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Or, - and, I'm just shooting from the hip here - PAY YOUR BILLS! You borrowed the money, you agreed to pay it back. A company that engages in collecting past due bills from people who walk away from their obligations is not a 'bottom-feeder'.

It's always funny how a company who is trying to collect what is rightfully owed is referred to as the 'scum' and the 'bottomfeeders', yet, the people who default on their obligations (read: Borrow money and then refused to pay it back) are 'victims'.

You must be a democrat.

Let me get this straight. I borrower money for goods and services and then, when pressured to pay, don't.... Seems to me the scum bags are those who are screwing the system for all of us that do pay our bills! The mentality here scares me to death! In other words what is being said here by paulmergel is that this is a legal form of stealing.... Nice! Maybe the government can bail us all out!!! ha ha

You, sir, are making incredible assumptions. You have NO idea if this company 'lied' to anyone. Additionally, you are giving this person incredibly poor advice by telling him not to pay the bill, cancel the account and file a complaint with the FTC. IF - and only if - this company has been assigned to collect the RIGHTFULLY OWED OBLIGATION (which the poster indicated they knew they already owed), then they have not only the right, but the responsibility to collect that debt. It is clear that you are an uneducated 'victocrat' who believes that they can get away with whatever they want. You should go back to living off of other people's money in your shitty little hole in the ground. You are a pathetic excuse for a human being. It's greedy little 'victims' like you who keep our country from getting back on their feet. "Oh, I borrowed money and now (gasp!) someone is actually trying to get me to PAY IT BACK! The horror!! I'd better run and tell the FTC to make the bad people stop so I can go steal money from some other business too!"

What a tool.

"I got the same call and same letter. It is all a scam and let me tell you they are not showing up at your work they are bunch of idiots. They are a complete scam big time. I got one saying I owe Money and More, which first off I paid off and have all the proof. Second off they are no longer a company. They are a HUGE scam. Just ignore them. I am reporting them to my Attorney General office"

- Yet another troll. Just because you don't like what they do doesn't mean they're a scam, you ignorant moron. If you paid it off, then just send them the proof.
